How data comes in

Four ways in. You pick the app, Orcabase picks the way.

Some data is best read where it lives, some is best copied into your warehouse. Either way, you ask about it the same way.

Live connection

Connect a database

Your app’s database, or a warehouse you already have.

Live. Every answer reads your data as it is right now.

Built-in sync

Built-in syncs

Google Sheets and MySQL, synced by Orcabase itself.

On your schedule: every 15 minutes to once a day.

Synced by Fivetran

Don’t see yours?

Hundreds more apps, through Fivetran.

The catalog inside Orcabase lists every app Fivetran can sync, not just the ones with a page here. If yours is there, an admin adds it in a few clicks, the same way as the apps above. Something missing? Tell us.

How Fivetran syncs work

Ask across all of it

One question, every source.

The best questions need more than one app. Once your data is in Orcabase, the agent can answer them in one go.

“What did each paying customer cost us in ads last month?”

Stripe + Google Ads

“Which emails brought customers back for a second order?”

Shopify + Klaviyo

“Which lead sources turn into customers who pay the most?”

HubSpot + Stripe

Questions

About data sources

More in the docs: Connect your data

Which apps can I connect to Orcabase?
The ones on this page, plus hundreds more through Fivetran: payments, stores, ads, CRMs, support desks, accounting and more. Your own database connects directly, and any file can be uploaded.
Do I need a Fivetran account?
No. Orcabase uses its own and sets everything up. You only sign in to each app, on Fivetran’s page, so Orcabase never sees those passwords or keys.
How fresh is the data?
Databases you connect directly are live: every answer reads them as they are right now. Built-in syncs run on your schedule, every 15 minutes to once a day. Apps synced through Fivetran update every 6 hours, as standard.
What does it cost?
Connecting your own database is included on every plan. Synced apps and spreadsheets are copied into a warehouse Orcabase hosts for you, part of data hosting, priced by storage. Apps synced through Fivetran also count toward a monthly allowance of changed rows: 500,000 a month, as standard.
Can I ask one question across several apps?
Yes. The agent can pull from several sources for one answer, like your payments and your ads, or your CRM and your app’s database, and tell you which it used.
Is my data safe?
Orcabase only reads. Databases connect with read-only logins, saved passwords and keys are encrypted, and app logins go to Fivetran directly, never to Orcabase. Each organization only ever sees its own data.

Your data already has the answers.

Connect the apps you use today, ask your first question, and add more whenever you like.
